In Collective Situations scholars, artists, and art collectives present a range of socially engaged art practices that emerged in Latin America during the Pink Tide period, between 1995 and 2010. This volume's essays, interviews, and artist's statements—many of which are appearing in English for the first time—demonstrate the complex relationship between moments of political transformation and artistic production. Whether addressing human rights in Colombia, the politics of urban spaces in Brazil, the violent legacy of military dictatorships in the region, or art’s intersection with public policy, health, and the environment, the contributors outline the region’s long-standing tradition of challenging ideas about art and the social sphere through experimentation. Introducing English-language readers to some of the most dynamic and innovative contemporary art in Latin America, Collective Situations documents new possibilities for artistic practice, collaboration, and creativity in ways that have the capacity to foster vibrant forms of democratic citizenship.

Описание: Warriors meets Redwall in this sweeping fantasy about warring animal clans and a young golden monkey who must venture across the Thousand Kingdoms to restore peace. In the depths of the Endless Forest, far from the eyes of the evil Macaque Empire two young monkeys, Sang and Hiro, are about to fulfill a prophecy. When Hiro is given an impossible quest--to bring down the Macaque Empire by infiltrating it from the inside--Sang is certain he's been set up for failure. And thus, her own journey begins: She must save her brother, no matter the cost. With the help of a rag-tag group of friends--a moth, a badger, a black cat, and a clan of shrews--Sang crosses the Thousand Kingdoms from Endless Forest to Frozen Northern Wastes, seeking out alliances from the splintered clans of the Sky, Forest, and Land. Because only an army of beasts could possibly save her brother. Goldenpaw is a tale of foretold fate, the price of peace, and the lengths we go to for the ones we love.

Southern charm meets devilish intent.
Being nearly immortal and stuck in the body of a young girl alongside an injured demon has been a long road for Truddie Mae. As a Keeper, blessed by the fates to protect the veil using supernatural magic, she has grown weary from lack of excitement. Nestled within the swampy wilderness of her Florida home, her existence will soon be threatened. The veil, a magical barrier between our world and the astral planes, is in distress urging for her help against a sinister new enemy that has breached this reality. Driven by a ravenous appetite for energy, it will stop at nothing until everything is consumed. Now, forced to work alongside a tri-blooded enigma, a nature mage, and a snobby ice enchantress, she must race to rescue others in its path and stop this wicked threat from ultimately unraveling the entire universe. Against the odds, the countdown begins. Can they stop this ticking monstrosity of devouring darkness or will time run out for them all?

Welcome to Ardenwood, a new life awaits. Come as you are, no fear, no escape.
People are changing. Friends, family, and enemies alike slink from shadows with abilities beyond normal human comprehension. Superpowered beings, a step up the evolutionary scale appear bringing fear and panic. World leaders scramble for answers while evil plots dominance.
Off the shore of a sleepy coastal town, Elnia Island becomes ground zero in the quest for truth as the powers that be seek out profits, weapons, and manipulation. Under the cover of night, their actions will affect the entire planet's way of thinking.
Uprisings against the new and different seep into the mainstream while states away, a young girl becomes a target after displaying powers that threaten her very existence. Stay or go, fight or flee. For many, the game of life and death takes a dangerous turn, and the stakes are raised.
Humans, only better. For some, a blessing, a curse. For others, a sinister boon. For those willing to play hero, the Agents of Ardenwood is created to protect but everything changes as they find their greatest threat living in a regular world as superhuman turns out to be themselves.
